We stayed at Zabargad for 5 weeks during July and August and had a truly fantastic experience. Good points: 1) Superb snorkeling on house reef. In 5 weeks I saw 2 dolphins, 11 reef sharks, 30 turtles, approx. 50 blue spotted sting rays, napoleons, barracuda, and plenty of fish. The best place to see the blue spotted sting rays is... More

We went to Zabargad hotel with the whole family, included a 4 year old grandson. There is little to do when your not a diver. Our grandson loved to play in the pool and had it for himself the whole day. The food is typical Egyptian, so staying a week is the max for me. The quality is good, the... More

Just came back from a week diving. The hotel is huge and was planned for seemingly several hundred guests not predominantly divers, in fact only 40-50 divers stayed there. On top they built more houses which they never completed, they stay as unfinished ruins. There were several nice bars at the pool and the beach - all out of operation... More

There have been some negative comments in previous reviews but I did not experience any problems with the food or the standards of this hotel. We stayed half board, breakfasts are simple but there is... More

This is 2010 and it is obvious from the previous tripadvisor.com reviews that this facility has greatly upgraded its services. There is a new chef, and the breakfast and dinner buffets provided great variety and substance. We stayed away from the raw vegetables and salads, and stuck to cooked food and peelable fruits and had no problem with intestinal problems.... More

My wife and I went to Zabargad for two weeks from 23rd April 2008 for a diving holiday. The Orca Dive Centre was very professionally run with a system going that meant maximum enjoyment with minimum effort, whether diving the house reef or on day boats. We took our own gear but the hire equipment available was in a good... More
